  • She's not the face of the Democratic Party

    She's the face of a completely new and different party that has nothing to do with old Democrats.

    To me, I've been viewing the US as being governed under a one party state for a while ... the Republicans and the Democrats form two halves of the same organization.

    The US doesn't need a third party

    They need to form a new second opposition party because the old one morphed into the monstrous thing we have today.

  • This isn't the derangement of one orange madman

    This is the derangement of an entire government

  • Don't feel bad ... I think I tried starting and restarting it about four times over the past ten years ... I only just recently finished watching it about two months ago ... and as others have said, it takes a while to get into it but when you do, you really get into it.

  • You need academics, research scientists and a bunch of professionals to figure this out?

    This like asking firefighters to produce a research paper to determine if there is a fire for the towering burning 50 story inferno that's lighting up the skyline.

  • Ooga booga .... lead on!!

  • 15 hours in a car over the past couple of days listening almost entirely to sesame street music

    You are either a loving parent .....

    or a victim of state sponsored illegal imprisonment and psychological torture

  • Holocaust-ception at this point

  • This is like watching a cat play with a defenceless trapped mouse

    Hey America! ... Your fascist government is making fun of you endlessly

  • |-°Π-|

    This is our modern day equivalent of cave painting and I would follow your tribe on the next mammoth hunt

  • beautiful .... best laugh I've had in a long time

  • Pornhub has taught me that it is known as 'spit-roasting'

  • That would have been a twist .... Crusher spends the entire episode trying to sabotage everything because she wants them to stay as ghosts ... for her own ..... preferences.

  • I had the same reaction ... never seen that before ... and now it's stuck in my memory banks

  • It's mostly repetition and consistency. Just comment and fire away with whatever comes to mind when you read things.

    At the start, you'll probably miss a lot and get things wrong or you might even insult people without knowing it. I've been playing around anonymous social media like this for years. I had several reddit accounts that I kept running for about ten years before the purge happened almost two years ago. I jumped from there and just kept going like I did before but this time on Lemmy mostly. I go exploring on other sections of the fediverse to see what's out there and to learn more from others. When I started years ago, I was just timid and careful about what and where to post ... and much of the time, I just got ignored and the other times, I really got things wrong and either posted in the wrong place with the wrong people and got really terrible responses. At first I thought all conversations were open and fun but quickly realized that there are certain groups of people you can or can't talk to. It took me a long while to find communities like c/tenforward

    Even after you find a good community, it then takes practice and plenty of reading. You start to figure out who is who and what they like and dislike and you start commenting as best you can. Eventually you start to learn the rhythm of the community and figure out where the boundaries are in what you can or can't say and when. You also start to learn to fool around with common memes and memery and general silliness. And even after all that you still miss .... not everything you write has an impact on people, not every post will be fantastic, not every comment will become popular. You just learn to let loose and let your thoughts go out in whatever you find.

    Just remember to always be kind and attentive to everyone of every colour and creed ... don't jump off the ledge into outright hate, fear or extreme views ... and if people scold you for what you wrote, take it as a lesson in learning boundaries ... if people ignore what you said, it doesn't mean you are unliked, it just means you keep going ... because every once in a while, eventually, a comment you make does make an impact on someone somewhere sometime.

    Whatever you do, just keep contributing. It makes our communities here grow naturally and its a great thing.

    Don't worry about it ... everyone is looking forward to what you have to share.

  • Archaeologists visit from time to time to uncover the remains of a once mighty civilization, long gone and forgotten in the crumbling ruins.

  • They should make a snack for the mess hall that is only served there ... a special snack like a Spanish Churro but make it a size smaller and call it a ... .
